What's the line between a fair deal and overpaying? I'm thinking anything over $6m a year is too much.

3yr/$13 would be a good price.

Perhaps safety is more pressing. I could see Riley taking over for London and one of our younger players (or a vet) filling the role Riley used to have. At safety, we still don't have a quality starter.
